Where the world takes a break

You’ve probably guessed by now that I like reading a lot. If you do not yet know, you’re in for a treat. I love reading. I don’t just love reading. I adore reading. Continuing on from my desire for a nook and creating one my other joy in life was always being able to read outside in the garden in the sunshine. Tucked away under a tree and dappled sunlight, with a book that weaves a spell around me and spirits me away. Far far away to a world immensely greater than the limitations of my own sometimes four walls.

Most of my reading was however done in the garden, down at the far end. In the corner with the sun lounger quickly dragged under the near by tree. I could disappear into a world of my choosing, lulled away on an ocean of background sounds and soft breezes.

So welcome to my backyard; a place where the real world stops for a little while and adventure is but a comfy sofa & a book away.

Mish Mish has these adorable hen and chicks at the current round of Collabor88. They are just precious and with my love for hens, chickens in general (no, not just eating) they had to join me. They come with all of the fluff and none of the no no bottom bits that makes a mess of your garden. I had to get an up close shot.

Disorderly have this beautiful frame clutter and I also tucked in the flora frame from Fancy Decor to add to the garden clutter. They are both framed in the background by the Shutter Sideboard by Pilot & Can’t even and it’s amazing looking so good and arriving at only 1 land impact. I was pleasantly surprised by it. It also comes in a number of colours such as blue, pink & teal.

On the otherside I placed the Olive tree by Soy underneath the trellis by Floorplan. It comes with these adorable hanging bulbs. I wanted it to have some protection from the elements. These baskets I have stacked up on the side will come in handing for picking so they have been placed at the ready. They are by Pilot & Can’t Even too, stackable and only 1 land impact each. The inviting couch is by Soy and it ‘is’ as soft as it looks!

Cubbie seems to have made a new friend with a little chickling. It seems fitting as both of them were brought to life by the same creator. A bear and a chick…who would have thought they would make the best of friends. They’ve taken up residence in this lovely bowl by Fancy Decor and she absolutely refused to let me be until they had gotten in on a feature picture.
